' I; ?, c1 F- ~7 w0 M( g
All other islands are mountainous so Tinian has a x 4 AV multiple for forts, Saipan, Guam or Pagan would have x 12 because forts and mountains are mutiplactive. i.e. attacking the Marianas for the allies is a no choice option.

4. Why did you give up on SWPAC
* p$ J) Q: {. o1 W9 Y0 {$ \$ j
SWPAC is a valid attack route BUT with every base having lvl 9 forts and the Japanese able to reinforce and it being malaria it is a VERY tough attack route. Remember Noemfoor against PZB a single Bde can stop 2 - 3 Divs of allied Troops for a long time. Forts are just to strong in jungle and Malaria.0 P# E, p- k8 g, { I3 w9 h: m
